Tap the Save Icon
.
Tap Finish to finalize the scan and create a new dataset.
Confirm by tapping Yes. A preview of the dataset is displayed. The scanning process shuts down, the images are downloaded, the Scanning Screen closes, and the screen returns to the Home Screen.
Caution: Do not shut down the device until this step is complete. If not, it could lead to corruption of data.
Previewing Datasets
From the Home Screen, tap
Datasets.
From the completed Datasets Screen, select a dataset to preview.
Each saved dataset displays the following information:
2D map preview.
Size of the area mapped.
Dataset ID.
Starting time of the scanning.
Duration of the scanning.
Number of captured panoramas.
Number of captured control points.
Tap on the Magnifying Glass Icon and the Quality Map Preview screen will display.
Tap the X to close the Quality Map Preview.
Tap the Plus or Minus Icons to zoom in and out.
As you zoom in you can also pan and look around.
To process the dataset, either upload them to NavVis IVION Processing, or if using NavVis Desktop Processing, transfer them to your processing machine and proceed there.
Refer here for viewing the Panoramas of the dataset.

Data Processing with NavVis IVION
The raw data from the NavVis MLX must be processed to generate a point cloud and panoramic images.
Data processing prepares your data for use in NavVis IVION, and other CAD or BIM software. You can
Process in the cloud using NavVis IVION to generate the point cloud and panoramic images.
Surveyed control points will correct distortions in the point cloud.
After processing a Quality Report can be generated to get an overview of the quality of the processing.
During processing you can configure the settings of the point cloud output, including:
Point cloud resolution.
Point cloud file format.
Point cloud filtering mode.
Point cloud coloring.
Maximum laser scanner range.
Floor filling - The blind spot can be filled with image information, where the scanner is standing, when taking 360° images,
Automatic detection and blurring of people’s faces.
Automatic object detection.
